In just 11 words, Jeremy Corbyn summed up the government’s catastrophic Brexit strategy

On a day which plunged the government into crisis, Jeremy Corbyn perfectly summed up its disastrous management of Brexit in just 11 words.

Falling apart at the seams

On Monday 9 July, prime minister Theresa May had to deal with the resignations of Brexit secretary David Davis and foreign secretary Boris Johnson. While she attempted to quell the growing political storm, Jeremy Corbyn landed a stinging blow.

In just 11 words, the Labour leader summed up the Conservative government’s Brexit plan by saying it:

No confidence

There’s now discussion of a looming no-confidence vote on Theresa May’s position as prime minister. But many Twitter users are already demonstrating their utter lack of belief and trust in May:

It seems that Theresa May's Government has collapsed. Her Brexit negotiations are shambles and I do not trust her to get us a good deal. The country desperately needs a general election. Britain needs Jeremy Corbyn as Prime Minister.

End of the line

After the resignations of Davis and Johnson, May’s position has become significantly uncertain. Her Brexit plan is in “disarray“. And with bookies slashing the odds of a general election before the end of 2018, we may see a Labour government before long.
